I also wonder why Dr. Goska seems unaware of the title of the book whichh specifically indicated that it was about 'sexual violence against Jewish women during the Holocaust." . whereas Dr. Gorka misunderstands the topic of the book. Her criticism is unfounded and would apply if the book were on sexual violence against all women, which was not the subject of the book. The response from the editors of the Book is well done.Freddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00306973787243329681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5489793575961502685.post-38326172670598872282015-01-27T11:57:27.433-05:002015-01-27T11:57:27.433-05:00wow i went to one of those camps and let me tell y...wow i went to one of those camps and let me tell you it was one of the most haunting experiences i've ever had to face, i came back thankful for being an american, and that i don't have to hide and be afraid of who i am as a person, God has given us the free will to be who we wish to be and even though we are inside some tragic circumstances we have to look to him for trust and the hope that he will get us through our trials that we all have to go through.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5489793575961502685.post-95595089264912802014-10-31T15:37:59.017-04:002014-10-31T15:37:59.017-04:00Thank you.

It was so heartwarming to see many members of the American military WWII generation who liberated the concentration camps in which several were where my Czech father's relatives had perished. My dad managed to escape his Czech homeland in the first few months after the March 1939 occupation by the Nazis. He went to China. While there for 1-1/2 years working as a doctor in the interior, he kept up a healthy correspondence with at least 78 writers (friends and relatives who either escaped or were trapped behind). I know this because upon his death I discovered 400 letters by these writers. My debut book, Adventurers Against Their Will, chronicles my quest to find seven of the writers and learn the lessons of their lives. I found two still alive at 91 and delivered the letters. I found descendants for all seven around the world. What their voices express loud and clear are the consequences of indifference and the importance of protecting human rights and dignity. Thank goodness for the brave soldiers who returned to tell the horrific stories of what they saw. I am forever indebted to what I know sadly impacted their lives forever. But their witness to this event hopefully will help prevent future atrocities.

I too find inter-generational memory fascinating, and the related subject of how we inform our children (or how we were informed, or not) of traumatic or difficult experience. I think this veiled dance occurs in every family, to varying degrees, but is particularly complicated by war, and of course specifically by the Holocaust. Thank you for sharing your note and Helen Eisen's reply.<br />- Kara KrauzeKara Krauzehttp://karakrauze.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5489793575961502685.post-11578617146257859052012-12-05T11:43:48.000-05:002012-12-05T11:43:48.000-05:00The posting date is just above the article's t...The posting date is just above the article's title: Jan 3, 2011.John Guzlowskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13052735138993479204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5489793575961502685.post-68020468028059099312012-12-05T11:40:31.274-05:002012-12-05T11:40:31.274-05:00what date was this posted cus i need the date for ...what date was this posted cus i need the date for when this was posted for a school projectAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5489793575961502685.post-11786925935034314892012-04-23T07:09:23.492-04:002012-04-23T07:09:23.492-04:00Good Writing
